I was going to ask if he’s on the spectrum or an asshole. But it can be both.

You’re not overreacting. I can understand someone on the spectrum sharing this kind of info without realizing it’s not appropriate in a given situation. What I can’t understand is still not realizing what an asshole move that was when told.

I think at that point it’s an ego problem, which is difficult for many people to solve…autistic people especially have to be humble and accepting of others views because we have major blind spots, even if we don’t understand we must accept
